So far I have 2 soldiers, their armor consists of one iron chestpiece and one bronze chestpiece. Both have iron swords [one's a longsword, one's a double handed]. They only have leather helms which shouldn't be very good against spiders...considering they bite heads off. Also, I'm past 10,000 and I have no kobolds. I'm one square away from two goblin fortresses and I'm past 50,000 I think but I haven't seen them yet.
